gazes concealing their resentment they
dared not act rashly having sent their
loyal followers away and with their own
insufficient strength they could only
endure their humiliation for the time
being internally they cursed a thousand
times already resolved to eliminate
these humans once they found an
opportunity from initial astonishment
Eileen's expression darkened she could
hardly believe that these Elders would
shift all blame onto her and AC it was
truly malicious she scrutinized each
face recognizing that these Elders once
esteemed and respected had been reduced
to Mere vessels of Filth and ranker
luckily these individuals did not
represent all the elders and Clan
leaders among the original dozen in the
outer Hall at least half were absent
presumably engaged in the rescue efforts
only these irredeemable deceitful Elders
remained hoping to evade their
responsibilities otherwise she would
have to seriously consider whether such
an Elven Clan was worth her bearing
responsibility but now was not the time
to eliminate them she needed to keep
these few alive for public execution
within the clan setting an example for
others bind them Eileen commanded
decisively AC and guon Tion promptly
surrounded the elders swiftly
incapacitating and binding them
initially Eileen merely intended to
restrain them but Ling fearing potential
struggles urged tan langang to knock out
his chosen Target first seeing this AC's
eyes lit up and he quickly followed suit
thus these Elders were unexpectedly
subdued all of them rendered unconscious
and bound not that it mattered whether
they were merely knocked out or truly
unconscious they pretended not to see
the blood streaming from the elders
heads AC retrieved a porcelain vial from
his spatial pouring out pills and
coordinating with guon tion and the
others to administer them to the now
unconscious Elders these pills would
ensure they would sleep a bit longer
after explaining AC concerned about
potential mishaps or rescues hesitated
we need someone to watch over them
however glancing at everyone guon tion
and the others were Keen to accompany
him making it inconvenient to leave
anyone behind just then a distant voice
filled with excitement and surprise rang
out AC you brat you're really still
alive turning AC saw Allan a smile broke
across his face as he stroe over
delivering a playful punch to Allan I
thought you were dead Allan laughed
heartily returning the gesture I'm tough
you know if you're alive how could I
possibly be dead his gaze then swept
over L zing and with excitement he waved
Zing you came to rescue me right seeing
Allen alive filled L Zing with joy he
had been worried for Alan S safety after
hearing AC say his subordinates had
perished but he hadn't he had the chance
to ask AC until now he was genuinely
delighted to see his good friend still
alive in the game despite knowing that
the other was merely an NPC he hurried
forward and enveloped Allen in a warm
embrace after a few brief exchanges of
pleasantries AC succinctly explained the
situation and left Allan behind to guard
the elders embarking on his departure
from the sanctuary with gu tontion and
the others during their search for
survivors in the forest Wonderland they
finally encountered fellow clansmen who
were also engaged in rescue efforts most
of them had been deceived by the Elders
of their Clan hiding away in some corner
but were now summoned to witness the
tragic state of their kin weeping until
their tears ran dry their eyes swollen
as they searched for surviving relatives
and gathered the remains of those who
had perished particularly upon learning
the truth each felt overwhelming regret
they harbored resentment towards the
elders yet felt burdened by their own
sins tirelessly aiding in the rescue
within the forest so much so that they
